Abstract "Academic librarians must be educators in their own right, and the key lies in becoming a proactive teacher and collaborator. Reale discusses the changing perception of academic librarians; shows how they can and should assert their rightful place in the learning cycle; looks at how to match teaching goals with academic librarians' missions; advocates for the indispensable roles they should play, including co-collaborator, one-on-one research consultant, and expert-at-large in non-structured spaces; and offers talking points for self-advocacy"-- Provided by publisher.
